Angry
Fifty Shades of Grey fans are petitioning against the casting choices made by producers of
the film adaptation of the steamy novel, according to
TheHollywood Reporter. Irate readers are demanding that
Alexis Bledel and
Matt Bomer be cast as the leads — Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey — instead of
the chosen
Dakota Johnson and
Charlie Hunnam.

A Change.org petition has garnered more than 22,000 signatures. It states: “Matt Bomer is the
perfect description of Christian Grey, and Alexis Bledel is the perfect actress to represent
Anastasia Steele, and, if they are not, nobody will be.”

Fans have long favored Bledel and Bomer for the roles.
Dana Brunetti, a producer of the film, has spent his week defending the casting of
Johnson and Hunnam, who reportedly have great chemistry.
